Troika was not on the top of my list a few weeks ago, and in fact, I had expectations that were much lower than those I had for Deus Ex: Invisible War. However, in my book, they have managed to regain the coveted spot of "Top RPG Developer" for me with the release of Vampire: Bloodlines.

Let's hope they're on a roll.

That's not the point. You gof rom being in love with TOEE and then started trahsing both it and Troika then continued that with BL now it's OMG Troika is the best ever.

R00fles!

You do realzie that no matter how good BL it does not make TOEE better nor does it make you like Arcanum more so after 1 game you like you proclaim Troika "the best".

That's just plain silly.

Oh, I never said Troika is the best ever, only that they've made one of the best RPGs in years with Bloodlines. I still hold a lot of cynicism when it comes to their games: especially the new one they're making. I didn't like Arcanum *at all* and TOEE was only fun for awhile.

To reiterate, Troika is not the best. Bioware has a better track record: I did enjoy KOTOR, and ALL of the Baldur's Gate games, but hated NWN for example. That's 3 out of 4.

Troika's only got 1 out of 3.

Ok. I probably took this wrong: "Top RPG Developer"

But, how cna you say a company that 1/3 as a "Top RPG dveloper"? I mean seriosuly. 33% is that good? WOWSERS!

You mean 1/3.

Anyway, I think they've proven themselves apt to produce top RPGs, especially with Fallout (Yes, yes, I know that many members of Obsidian had a huge part in that game too and that many of Troika's new hirings like Steve Moret did not.) and ultimately Bloodlines.

Arcanum was good, sluts. OH NOES they made one bad game. Remember all BioWare has made have been bad games.
